Children's art with disability

Disability World has art from second graders in Capetown, South Africa.

The second graders had been asked to concentrate their wits and paintbrushes on depiction of disability, encouraged to be creative and draw upon their experiences, observations and imagination. The ceremony was addressed by a deaf member of South Africa's parliament, broadcast live on a community radio station and attracted a great deal of media coverage an discusion about attitudes towards people who have disabilities.
